According to Baldwin Administrative Assistant John Dills, over 40 vendors from the local area and metro Atlanta are scheduled to attend this year’s event.
Various foods will be available, from burgers and bar-b-que to seafood and sweet treats. There will also be a variety of crafts for sale, from spray-paint art to custom bracelets and jewelry.

Jeepers will depart Baldwin at 1 p.m. for the Currahee Crawl.
The event will also feature games and entertainment throughout the day, including bounce houses, pumpkin bowling, Plinko, hayrides, volleyball, cornhole, and a football toss.
